Abstract
Warburg effect or aerobic glycolysis provides selective growth advantage to aggressive cancers. However, targeting oncogenic regulators of Warburg effect has always been challenging owing to the wide spectrum of roles of these molecules in multitude of cells. In this study, we present ADP-dependent glucokinase (ADPGK) as a novel glucose sensor and a potential onco-target in specifically high-proliferating cells in Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL). Previously, we had shown ADPGK to play a major role in T-cell activation and induction of Warburg effect. We now report ADPGK knock-out Ramos BL cells display abated in vitro and in vivo tumour aggressiveness, via tumour-macrophage co-culture, migration and Zebrafish xenograft studies. We observed perturbed glycolysis and visibly reduced markers of Warburg effect in ADPGK knock-out cells, finally leading to apoptosis. We found repression of MYC proto-oncogene, and up to four-fold reduction in accumulated mutations in translocated MYC in knock-out cells, signifying a successful targeting of the malignancy. Further, the activation induced differentiation capability of knock-out cells was impaired, owing to the inability to cope up with increased energy demands. The effects amplified greatly upon stimulation-based proliferation, thus providing a novel Burkitt’s lymphoma targeting mechanism originating from metabolic catastrophe induced in the cells by removal of ADPGK.

Abstract
Disulfide bond formation is catalyzed by the protein disulfide Isomerases (PDI) family. This is a critical step in protein folding which occurs within the endoplasmic reticulum. PDIA4, as a member of the PDI family, can cause the adjustment of αIIβ 3 affinities which activate platelet and promote thrombosis formation. Endoplasmic reticulum response is triggered by accumulation of abnormal folding proteins concomitant with increasing PDIA4 expression. Besides, current researches indicate that activated platelets and ERS response affect tumor progression. And PDIA4, as previous reported, also participates in tumor progression by affecting cell apoptosis and DNA repair machinery without specific mechanisms revealed.Therefore, PDI inhibitor might possess great potential value in against tumor progression. In this review, we summarize information on PDIA4 including its the basic characteristics and its implication on tumor.

Abstract
A nanofilm of cross-linked collagen-I is equivalent to a relatively stiff matrix, which stiffens the nucleus, correlating broadly with lamin-A (including mutant progerin), retinoic acid transcription factor level and activity, and osteoinduction. In vitro results are supported by studies of ectopic bone formation in vivo. Synergistic cues from extracellular matrix and soluble factors are often obscure in differentiation. Here the rigidity of cross-linked collagen synergizes with retinoids in the osteogenesis of human marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Collagen nanofilms serve as a model matrix that MSCs can easily deform unless the film is enzymatically cross-linked, which promotes the spreading of cells and the stiffening of nuclei as both actomyosin assembly and nucleoskeletal lamin-A increase. Expression of lamin-A is known to be controlled by retinoic acid receptor (RAR) transcription factors, but soft matrix prevents any response to any retinoids. Rigid matrix is needed to induce rapid nuclear accumulation of the RARG isoform and for RARG-specific antagonist to increase or maintain expression of lamin-A as well as for RARG-agonist to repress expression. A progerin allele of lamin-A is regulated in the same manner in iPSC-derived MSCs. Rigid matrices are further required for eventual expression of osteogenic markers, and RARG-antagonist strongly drives lamin-A–dependent osteogenesis on rigid substrates, with pretreated xenografts calcifying in vivo to a similar extent as native bone. Proteomics-detected targets of mechanosensitive lamin-A and retinoids underscore the convergent synergy of insoluble and soluble cues in differentiation.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle where secretory or membrane proteins are correctly folded with the aid of various molecular chaperones and oxidoreductases. Only correctly folded and assembled proteins are enabled to reach their final destinations, which are called as ER quality control (ERQC) mechanisms. ER-associated degradation (ERAD) is one of the ERQC mechanisms for maintaining the ER homeostasis and facilitates the elimination of misfolded or malfolded proteins accumulated in the ER. ERAD is mainly consisting of three processes: recognition of misfolded proteins for degradation in the ER, retrotranslocation of (possibly) unfolded substrates from the ER to the cytosol through dislocation channel, and their degradation in the cytosol via ubiquitin-protesome system. After briefly mentioned on productive folding of nascent polypeptides in the ER, we here overview the above three processes in ERAD system by highlighting on novel ERAD factors such as EDEM and ERdj5 in mammals and yeasts.

Abstract
The Thioredoxin (Trx) fold is a versatile protein scaffold consisting of a four-stranded β-sheet surrounded by three α-helices. Various insertions are possible on this structural theme originating different proteins, which show a variety of functions and specificities. During evolution, the assembly of different Trx fold domains has been used many times to build new multi-domain proteins able to perform a large number of catalytic functions. To clarify the interaction mode of the different Trx domains within a multi-domain structure and how their combination can affect catalytic performances, in this review, we report on a structural and functional analysis of the most representative proteins containing more than one catalytically active Trx domain: the eukaryotic protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs), the thermophilic protein disulfide oxidoreductases (PDOs) and the hybrid peroxiredoxins (Prxs).

Abstract
The alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) is well established as the principal high-affinity alpha-bungarotoxin-binding protein in the mammalian brain. We isolated carbachol-sensitive alpha-bungarotoxin-binding complexes from total mouse brain tissue by affinity immobilization followed by selective elution, and these proteins were fractionated by SDS-PAGE. The proteins in subdivided gel lane segments were tryptically digested, and the resulting peptides were analyzed by standard mass spectrometry. We identified 55 proteins in wild-type samples that were not present in comparable brain samples from alpha7 nAChR knockout mice that had been processed in a parallel fashion. Many of these 55 proteins are novel proteomic candidates for interaction partners of the alpha7 nAChR, and many are associated with multiple signaling pathways that may be implicated in alpha7 function in the central nervous system. The newly identified potential protein interactions, together with the general methodology that we introduce for alpha-bungarotoxin-binding protein complexes, form a new platform for many interesting follow-up studies aimed at elucidating the physiological role of neuronal alpha7 nAChRs.

Abstract
The enzymes of the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family are thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). They contain a CXXC active-site sequence where the two cysteines catalyze the exchange of a disulfide bond with or within substrates. The primary function of the PDIs in promoting oxidative protein folding in the ER has been extended in recent years to include roles in other processes such as ER-associated degradation (ERAD), trafficking, calcium homeostasis, antigen presentation and virus entry. Some of these functions are performed by non-catalytic members of the family that lack the active-site cysteines. Regardless of their function, all human PDIs contain at least one domain of approximately 100 amino acid residues with structural homology to thioredoxin. As we learn more about the individual proteins of the family, a complex picture is emerging that emphasizes as much their differences as their similarities, and underlines the versatility of the thioredoxin fold. Here, we primarily explore the diversity of cellular functions described for the human PDIs.

Abstract
Protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum is often associated with the formation of native disulfide bonds. Their primary function is to stabilize the folded structure of the protein, although disulfide bond formation can also play a regulatory role. Native disulfide bond formation is not trivial, so it is often the rate-limiting step of protein folding both in vivo and in vitro. Complex coordinated systems of molecular chaperones and protein folding catalysts have evolved to help proteins attain their correct folded conformation. This includes a family of enzymes involved in catalyzing thiol-disulfide exchange in the endoplasmic reticulum, the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family. There are now 17 reported PDI family members in the endoplasmic reticulum of human cells, but the functional differentiation of these is far from complete. Despite PDI being the first catalyst of protein folding reported, there is much that is still not known about its mechanisms of action. This review will focus on the interactions of the human PDI family members with substrates, including recent research on identifying and characterizing their substrate-binding sites and on determining their natural substrates in vivo.

Abstract
To identify a growth-promoting activity related to retinoblastoma-interacting-zinc-finger (RIZ) protein, differential protein expression of MCF-7 cell lines expressing the zinc-finger or the proline-rich domain of RIZ protein was analyzed by a robust bottom-up mass-spectrometry proteomic approach. Spots corresponding to qualitative and quantitative differences in protein expression have been selected and identified. Some of these proteins have been previously reported as being associated with different types of carcinomas or involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. Knowledge of specific differentially expressed proteins by MCF-7-derived cell lines expressing RIZ different domains will provide the basis for identifying a growth-promoting activity related to RIZ gene products.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary cancer of the liver. Thus there is great interest to identify novel HCC diagnostic markers for early detection of the disease and tumour specific associated proteins as potential therapeutic targets in the treatment of HCC. Currently, we are screening for early biomarkers as well as studying the development of HCC by identifying the differentially expressed proteins of HCC tissues during different stages of disease progression. We have isolated, by reverse transcriptase and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), a 1741bp cDNA encoding a protein that is differentially expressed in HCC. This novel protein was initially identified by proteome analysis and we designate it as Hcc-2. The protein is upregulated in poorly-differentiated HCC but unchanged in well-differentiated HCC. The full-length transcript encodes a protein of 363 amino acids that has three thioredoxin (Trx) (CGHC) domains and an ER retention signal motif (KDEL). Fluorescence GFP tagging to this protein confirmed that it is localized predominantly to the cytoplasm when expressed in mammalian cells. Protein alignment analysis shows that it is a variant of the TXNDC5 gene, and the human variants found in Genbank all show close similarity in protein sequence. Functionally, it exhibits the anticipated reductase activity in the insulin disulfide reduction assay, but its other biological role in cell function remains to be elucidated. This work demonstrates that an integrated proteomics and genomics approach can be a very powerful means of discovering potential diagnostic and therapeutic protein targets for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) tumors produce large amounts of basement membrane (BM) components that are widely used as cell culture substrates mimicking BM functions. To delineate the tissue/organ origin of the tumor and the mechanisms operating in the BM overproduction, a genome-wide expression profile of EHS tumor was analyzed using RIKEN cDNA microarrays containing approximately 40,000 mouse cDNA clones. Expression profiles of F9 embryonal carcinoma cells that produce laminin-1 and other BM components upon differentiation into parietal endoderm-like cells (designated F9-PE) were also analyzed. Hierarchical clustering analysis showed that the gene expression profiles of EHS and F9-PE were the most similar among 49 mouse tissues/organs in the RIKEN Expression Array Database, suggesting that EHS tumor is parietal endoderm-derived. Quantitative PCR analysis confirmed that not only BM components but also the machineries required for efficient production of BM components, such as enzymes involved in post-translational modification and molecular chaperones, were highly expressed in both EHS and F9-PE. Pairs of similar transcription factor isoforms, such as Gata4/Gata6, Sox7/Sox17, and Cited1/Cited2, were also highly expressed in both EHS tumor and F9-PE. Time course analysis of F9 differentiation showed that up-regulation of the transcription factors was associated with those of BM components, suggesting their involvement in parietal endoderm specification and overproduction of the BM components.

Abstract
Here, we describe a proteomics approach to study protein expression changes in differentiating Caco-2 cells. Caco-2 is a colorectal carcinoma cell line, which upon differentiation loses its tumorigenic phenotype and displays characteristics of mature enterocytes, including brush borders with microvilli. Cells were grown in culture flasks and harvested at different stages of differentiation (days post-confluence: -3, 0, 3, 7, 10, 14, and 18). Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to analyse proteome changes. Approximately 1400 protein spots were detected within the Caco-2 proteome, within the pH 4-7 range. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis allowed for the detection of 18 proteins from which the levels of expression were found to be associated with differentiation. Of these proteins, 11 were identified by means of MALDI-TOF or NANO-ESI-MS/MS mass spectrometry and include liver fatty acid binding protein (FABL), three forms of alpha-enolase (ENOA), nucleoside diphosphate kinase A (NDKA), cofilin-1 (COF1), translationally controlled tumour protein (TCTP), mitochondrial 60-kDa heat shock protein (CH60), probable protein disulfide isomerase (ER60), creatine kinase B (KCRB), and glutathione S-transferase alpha (GTA1). Thus, proteomics revealed that the differentiation-related change in phenotype of Caco-2 involves changes in a variety of distinct biochemical pathways. Some of these proteins have not been shown before to be associated with Caco-2 differentiation (ER60; COF1; CH60; NDKA; TCTP and ENOA). Therefore, processes related to protein folding and disulfide bridge formation, cytoskeleton formation and maintenance, nucleotide metabolism, glycolysis as well as tumorigenesis-associated proteins may be involved in Caco-2 differentiation. Changes in the expression of CH60, TCTP, GTA1, NDKA, and FABL have also been reported to be associated with in vivo colon carcinogenesis. These findings illustrate that a combination of proteomics and cell culture is a useful approach to find markers for Caco-2 differentiation, which could contribute to the comprehension of the process of colon carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is a protein-thiol oxidoreductase that catalyzes the oxidation, reduction and isomerization of protein disulfides. In the endoplasmic reticulum PDI catalyzes both the oxidation and isomerization of disulfides on nascent polypeptides. Under the reducing condition of the cytoplasm, endosomes and cell surface. PDI catalyzes the reduction of protein disulfides. At those locations, PDI has been demonstrated to participate in the regulation of reception function, cell-cell interaction, gene expression, and actin filament polymerization. These activities of PDI will be discussed, as well as its activity as a chaperone and subunit of prolyl 4-hydroxylase and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein.
